BALI INSIDERS SHOW NOTES
In Season 2 Episode 4 of Bali Insiders we talk to Lynley Le Grand, owner of The Corner House Bali and 2002 Bali Bombings Survivor.
Lynley shares with us her incredible story of being a starry eyed 22 year old, who had just completed University and travelled to Bali to start her own import export business. She travelled on her own but met up with a friend from Australia that fateful night and they headed off to Paddies Night club. Within 20 minutes of them arriving a man with a back pack walked in and set off a bomb. The unbelievable story that follows is what nightmares are made of.
However this horrific experience could not destroy the love that Lynley had for Bali and she returned many times before her and her Husband made the decision to move their Family to the Island to live permanently where they now run the successful Corner House Bali in Seminyak. Lynley was incredibly generous to share her experience with us and we really hope you enjoy this episode.

In Episode 2 of Bali Insiders, Emma & Karlie chat with Lydia Rose. Lydia is an Aussie who has called Bali home for the past 6 and half years. Prior to Bali she was performing in Europe and spent 8 years living between Ibiza, Spain & London. Lydia returned to Australia from her time in Europe and decided to move to Bali without ever having visited before - WOW! Her story is a testament to how having the courage to take a leap of faith and doing it with an open mind and heart can be life changing! We talk to her about meeting her now Husband on the Island, her involvement with local charities and her need to give back to the place that has given her so much. We even have a little sing-a-long to Lydia’s new single!
This is a super fun show and we hope you love it.
